Apple Challah for the New Year!

APPLE CHALLAH
Feeling too lazy to post the whole recipe right now. So here's the story...
Here is the yeast mixture with the flour...
 This is my Mom needing the dough... (gotta get her working too)!
 My beautiful ball of dough before it rises...
 Chopping the apples!
 The oh so yummy mixture of apples, sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon...
 The dough has risen (for the first time)...
 After the dough rises, I flatten it and press in half the apple mixture...
 Then fold the dough over the mixture and do it again...
 The dough get chopped into 16 pieces and laid down into the pan...
Look! It rose over the top!

 After baking...In all it's glory! It looks burnt on top, but it's not! I promise!

 Here it is on the table with apples and honey (a Jewish New Year tradition), some desserts and the kiddish wine (another tradition)...
 And now...DIG IN! It's sweet and appley...just perfect for the New Year!
